Meaningless *** Poem 5/4/2014 Set your gaze upon the man across the bar. Watch him as he casually drinks a beer and laughs with his friends. Gossiping about past drunken nights' ends. Ends that were met with a warm welcome's comfort. Ends that involved taking a woman to bed without much effort. How many do you think that man slept with in high school? A mindless **** count as if they were tools, willing to be wielded and fooled. willing to be picked up and ****** in the back of his ****** '04 pickup truck. Maybe he's had at least one meaningless ***** with that **** of his. So tell me this. Please, why is the *** I have meaningful to him? If his *** is shallow, then why does mine fill his hatred to the brim? What's worse is the way he claims to 'know.' The signs I give off that are guaranteed to show. 1. I wear tight underwear. 2. Their color scheme has a brightly colored flare. 3. I sit with my legs crossed in a chair. 4. That tells him I want it down there. 3. I get up and walk to the bathroom with a sway, 2. No straight man would dare do that. 1. ****** Marys and Long Islands are dead give-a-ways, 0. I held hands with a man walking into the bar. But the same as him, I could take someone home and forget their name. I could gloat about it to friends the next night out for two minutes' fame. I could go on with what to him could be an ordinary day. But because it's me, it's more meaningful to him. Because I am gay. Let's have a toast for the ********** as Kanye once said. Let's have a toast for homophobes who take women meaninglessly to bed. meanwhile my meaningless *** only finds meaning in their heads.
